The South-East Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reaffirmed its strong support for the candidacy of Alhaji Abukakar Atiku and Mr. Peter Obi, warning those that are out to sabotage their efforts to beware of the wrath of the people.

Rising from the combined meeting of the Zonal and State Working Committees of the party in the party Secretariat at Enugu on Thursday, the Zonal Chairman of the party, Deacon Austin Umahi declared: “The South East PDP will aggressively give all their support to the victory of the party in the South-East.”

The Chairman said that the party was lucky to have two qualified candidates vying for the presidency. His words: “Alhaji Abubakar has verifiable records. Mr. Peter Obi’s performance in Anambra State is there for everybody to see. Nobody is more qualified than both of them among other presidential candidates.”

Advising other parties to keep-off the South East, Umahi said: “Hold me by my words. You will now see a different dance step that will tell other parties that they have no place in the South-East. Every stakeholder must go and deliver his polling booth.”

Appealing to all PDP members to join hands for the victor of the party, he said that now was not the time of “trafficating right and turning left”, declaring that “the PDP must get it right now.”

Corroborating the position of the Zonal Chairman, the Anambra State PDP Chairman, Chief Ndubuisi Nwobu, said it was now incumbent on all PDP members to put in all they have towards the success of the party in all the parts of the country.

SE PDP leaders have individual ambitions for 2023. They can't decamp because of the political backlash but prefer to remain in PDP and their own political contributions towards 2023 is to sabotage Obi for APC to win.

If Obi is crippled in 2019, he can't rise above SE Governors in political status and they (Governors and party leaders) have chances in 2023 but if Obi wins, he becomes the preferred candidate in 2023 and they would never allow that.

Go and ask Atiku why no SE state offered him their stadium to use when he wanted to launch his rally there. In fact, Ugwuanyi instructed that PDP billboards in Enugu showing has face with Atiku should be pulled down.

Remember what Obiano said yesterday and what Wike said late last year?
